If only we could prove that, then we’d have a case celebre! But, is there witness testimony that shows that the people getting off those buses walked in and registered at the polls? We can suspect all we want, but without witnesses, it is all conjecture.
Even if the buses had out of state license plates, it does not prove a thing. If a group wants to rent a bus, the rental agency provides whatever bus is available. Anybody who ever rents a vehicle in Wisconsin (especially in Racine) is apt to get one with an IL plate. If an agency, or several agencies, rent a lot of buses, they could come from as far away as Michigan, or Indiana.
As much as I’d like to view this as a smoking gun, without someone to say that they saw 30 people get off the bus and line up to register with questionable documents, it’s all circumstantial.
Unfortunately, with the way that Wisconsin elections are set up, you have to have someone challenge those votes BEFORE they are cast. Then, the ballots would be set aside BEFORE they are put into the electronic ballot box and marked as provisional. The voter would have 24-48 hours to appear at the municipal offices with the proper ID. If he/she comes forward with the right documents, his/her vote would then be counted at the canvass which happens within a week after the election.
According to Vicki McKenna, Wisconsin radio talker, challenges were being ignored and ballots were put right in the ballot boxes without being segregated as provisional. I don't expect them to be able to prove the GOP won the race, at best they'll be able to prove the winner is unknown. Making ithat truth widely known may have future value. I don't know whether Wisconsin election law offers any way to a redo election, which is the only way the GOP ends up winning this race.
If they know who registered at the polls and didn’t sign the register, it would seem an eager young reporter could get their names and addresses and visit their homes to ask them why they didn’t sign their signatures. Of coarse, there is the possibly that the young reporter might find that some of these voters don’t live at there reported addresses. Isn’t that perjury? I assume they signed their on-site registration form. But then why go to the trouble, it’s only an election.
